Are you a fleet owner? What carrier do you work for?

No, your Canadian math is wrong. Total pay of $2.40 split 40/20/40 IS .96/.48/.96 cents.

you arent paying attention! Read my post again! Try 50/50 of the load THEN 100% of the FSC to whoever pays for the fuel! Your math is like that darn Canadian!!! Exactly how is $1.60 and $0.80 equalling 60/40??? I'm stone sober and it looks like 67/33 to me!!! 60/40 of your simple $2.40 total...

It easy to question an owner when you don't have skin in the owner game... until you've been an owner WITH drivers driving your equipment you can't really speak with experience. If you can buy trucks and give drivers a better deal, please do so!!!

Westy supplies an EZpass, Espar, generator, air conditioning, and a properly insulated new van.

That's an easy question... the guy paying the fuel cares how he uses it but if a driver isn't paying for fuels he's probably tearing up the truck and blowing raw fuel out the tailpipe!

40% for the driver, 20% for fuel, 40% for the owner... same as your 60/40 or 40/60 depending on who's buying the fuel.

The FSC is paying for 100% of the fuel with the carrier we both work for... whoever takes the FSC pays for the fuel and is fully reimbursed by the FSC. Have you looked at a settlement statement lately???

Really??? So the 60% side is getting an extra 20% JUST for handling the nozzle???? :confused:

The often mentioned 40/20/40 formula equates to 50/50 split of the load, layover, detention, and strategic moves. A careful driver can make a little money on the FSC we get, not like the carrier we moved from (E-1). If a driver wants the FSC then he takes care of the fuel completely. Hand loads...

I would NEVER pay drivers 60% of the load AND 100% of the fuel surcharge and all accessorials... being left with the truck payments and maintenance and more! If there are owners out there that do that I'd like to drive for them!!!

My $printer was a six wheeler and in toll booths with attendants they can, and often do, count tires... And when they did I was charged more than a four wheeler.

Maybe vanners can be rewarded with 2,000 points anytime they safely deliver a load that couldn't have been delivered on time if they were in a big truck running a log? ;)

You folks are missing the real political angle... They WILL blame it on George Bush AND THEN insist that if the passengers would have been on Obamacare, they would all still be alive and well!!! :D

Obviously you haven't been to deer camp...

I'm pretty sure one of the pilots shot the other pilot dead and stole the plane with a pre- arranged destination & sale. I'm also pretty sure the passengers were all murdered upon landing and then the remaining pilot was murdered too.. Why pay him when it's just one more bullet?

I thought the proper Tartan for the Elliott Clan was a medium blue with red accents... is there another Tartan for your Clan? My mother's side is of the Duncan Clan, with a Tartan very similar to what you are wearing... but it looks like it could be a fun event anyway!

As an owner, I will not pay fuel because the drivers have to have skin in the game or most all will waste fuel. In my opinion, a driver should get a high of 65% if the vehicle gets really poor fuel milage to a low of 58% for a new $printer or Promaster because the fuel costs are lower while the...

REALLY? Technically the Promaster GAS engine gets less MPG than the DIESEL $printer.... HOWEVER, the true expense for FUEL is CENTS PER MILE. As DIESEL is SIGNIFICANTLY MORE EXPENSIVE PER GALLON than GAS, the Promaster is certainly more economical than the $printer in many, maybe all, areas...
